There will be an update in the future also for Bravia XF9 series to Android Pie?

Most likely not. The used SoC (from 2016) is not supported anymore, still sitting on a 3.10 kernel. Even Oreo is a hack already. Pie requires a 4.4 kernel. Nobody will take the burden and risk to update kernel and drivers for the old chipset. So there are two choices left, either no or buggy Pie.

Hi Csongi_ ,

 

I am not sure to be honest. Sony haven't mentioned anything about it.
